in my aspie group, there was a fella who tried to disconnect his brain with a shotgun, ended up blowing off most of his face but miraculously he kept his eyes. he was a handsome fella before this. the damage was too much to reconstruct.

I don't think I've got a soul (I don't mean in the religious sense btw) like other people so that's probably how come I'm still alive. My T is actually flummoxed as to why I'm still alive.
I mean I just keep going and going like a dumb f*****g animal for the most part.

Wanting my pets to have their best lives
Not wanting to leave my friends with that trauma
Many, many small reasons, such as the beauty of the sunrise
Hope that there are better days ahead

Yeah failed attempts can be. I knew someone who threw himself in front of a train. He lost both his legs and...well half his body more or less. Not good...he lost his reproductive system, bladder, bowel. And his mother lost her marbles to boot and never spoke again.
He had to have his car adapted so the foot pedals were in easy reach for his hands.
He was actually my drug dealer at the time. This was almost 30 years ago.
